So, for anyone who hasn't been watching the smokin thread, we've undertaken a full thread audit to determine a correct count that may or may not have gotten off track in the past 12yrs.

To commemorate this reveal, I'll be taking guesses as to the actual number of cigars smoked.

Post your guesses here whether the posted count is high by X amount or low by X amount. The person with the closest guess will be sent a 5er. No price is right rule in effect here. Though you do have to guess high/low correctly.

For hypothetical example, if one person guesses high by 3, and the next guesses low by 7, and say true count is low by 1, then low by 7 wins even though high by 3 is technically closer. Clear as mud?

While it's not a ton of time, I'll be taking guesses until 5am CST Thursday morning. Results to be revealed later that day, prolly after work.

Current Participants:
Jakethesnake with posted count 300 below the actual
rpnociti with posted count 402 below the actual
Delta with a devilish guess of posted count 666 above the actual
Corey with posted 442 above actual
Jespear with posted 391 above actual
Stinger with posted 451 above actual
DG West with posted 420 above actual
Frankie with posted 69 below actual
Clint with posted 69 above actual
Celtic with posted 351 below actual
Rman with posted 68 above actual
Telecaster with posted 1100 below actual
Mjrburn with posted 2k above actual

All right. I said after work, but I'll take a short break.

First of all, I'd like to thank Conan and Lee for their help in poring over several thousand posts in this effort.

Second, let me say there were wild swings both above and below during the past 57000 posts and you were all dead on at one point or another.

However, right here and now, in spite of rpnociti looking like the favorite for several days, telecaster52 jumped in with the winning guess of the posted count being low by 1100.

The tally as of right this second is that the thread is short 1141 smokes.

Congrats, tele! Shoot me your addy when you have a chance to.

*No claims are made for the auditors' mental status at the time of counting*

No way! No one on this board can count including me! Anyone ever send out a 5er that actually had just 5 cigars? I say nay!

Frank that! We all frank up. No harm, no foul.

I’m sure there was no ill intent and (luckily) it’s not like it changed the winner.

You had the cojones to take on the challenge when no one else would so keep your head high. ThumpUp

Ok i give. I got to 20 and ran out of fingers and toes. I can't math.
But since you guys did the hard work maybe you need a prize.
So I'll send an addy and you can send me a few for you and your team and I'll get some hand made stuff sent out.
